A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I really loved

Titanic Two: Two Titanics!: "They rebuild the Titanic, but not just one Titanic, two Titanics, one on each side of the Atlantic. One sets sail from NY, the other from Belfast, and they collide head-on in the icy waters of the North Atlantic."

I think I sprained something trying not to laugh out loud at The Uplifting Retard. Who will they cast to follow in Tom Hanks' and Cuba Gooding Jr.'s footsteps?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm watching Pulp Fiction on Bravo and am I crazy, or is this added footage of Mia Wallace shooting black & white footage of Vincent Vega and asking him questions?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

or is this added footage of Mia Wallace shooting black & white footage of Vincent Vega and asking him questions?

If she asks him about Encyclopedia Brown or Betty and Veronica then it's stuff that was in the script but not in the final cut of the movie. In other words, extra.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I think I saw that as a deleted scene on one release.

Man, I wish I was a movie critic right now. Uwe Boll is going 3 rounds in the boxing ring with movie critics. [link] (There's nothing else at the link beyond what I've quoted here)

Tired of getting thrown under the bus by critics, German filmmaker Uwe Boll is fighting back - literally. Boll, who took offense to the overwhelming bashing that his latest film BloodRayne took at the hands of critics, decided that enough was enough and he challenged the would be pundits to a three round boxing match to settle things.

Internet casino GoldenPalace.com, known for their unique marketing ploys, came on board and "Raging Boll" was born. Four matches are scheduled for September 23rd in Vancouver with a fifth match planned for Spain. The fights will be filmed for, you guessed it, an upcoming Boll project.
